-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1361>`_ | Failure rate: 30-40% of tests failing due to interfaces not in link-up state after API call sw_interface_set_flags. |

-| 7 | `CSIT-1245 | VPP srv6proxy-stat and srv6proxy-masq, much higher NDR and PDR 78B throughput in 3n-hsw testbeds, in CSIT-18.07 vs. CSIT-18.04. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1245>`_ | Due to wrong test suite configuration in dynamic-proxy mode. Artefact of suite code refactoring. |

+| 1 | `CSIT-1782 | Multicore AVF tests are failing when trying to create interface. |

+| 2 | `CSIT-1763 | Adapt ramp-up phase of nat44 tests for different frame sizes. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1763>`_ | Currently ramp-up phase rate and duration values are correctly set for tests with 64B frame size. |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 3 | `CSIT-1671 | All CSIT scale tests can not use PAPI due to much slower performance compared to VAT/CLI (it takes much |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1671>`_ | longer to program VPP). This needs to be addressed on the PAPI side. |
+| +-----------------------------------------+ The usual PAPI library spends too much time parsing arguments, so even with async processing (hundreds of |
+| | `VPP-1763 | commands in flight over socket), the VPP configuration for large scale tests (millions of messages) takes |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1763>`_ | too long. |
